Don't you just love December? It's such a fun month with all the celebrations, Santa Claus and the elves, my birthday (if getting older is considered fun.. ;) ) and Christmas Eve itself. But what can make December even more fun? Well advent calendar of course!! I would like to host an advent calendar of my own, to be cheered up and to cheer others up. Wanna join me? If you do, you can 'book' a day/window in my calendar by commenting in the comment box of this post and telling me which day/days you want to book and then emailing me at mustesormi (a) gmail . com (remove the spaces and replace (a) with @ ) so we can exhange addresses. Then you can send me a little something for me to put in my calendar and I will send you a little something in exchange (naturally, you don't have to have a calendar of your own to participate in mine, I'll send you something anyway!), so basically it's a little swap. What can that 'little something' be? Well, something small and inexpensive, like a piece of ribbon or a couple of buttons or a little piece of paper to be used in crafting, or maybe a little something for my son (like a fun card that you've made which we can put on display in his room), maybe a little something you've made yourself, maybe something recycled. It is the thought that counts, not the monetary value of the item! I'd like to have the envelopes with the 'little something' by Friday, November 25 (please remember to mark the envelope with the date when it's supposed to be opened), and I will send my envelopes to those participating by that date.And as I said, I'd like to cheer you up so please in your email give me a hint of what might cheer you up! December will be a fun month! :)
